What an attractive shot of these two Owl youngsters, Paul! I love that piercing yellow stare.

These are both lovely captures, Kirk! You brought out that subtle blue color that the Grackles possess.

Very nice capture of the hen wigeon, fotoi! The color is great.

Wonderful shots of the Sandhill colts, Astoria! Very appealing.

Both these shots are wonderful, Paul! Beautifully captured!

Stunning capture of this Grey Francolin, Neal!

Absolutely wonderful, Joe! Pinpoint sharp.

These two shots are both beauties, Mark!

Thank you, Mike. The purple as well.

Thanks for the compliment Mike.
Yeah the Owls ears are beginning to show, to cool.
They fledged so hopefully they'll stick around that tree a little longer.

Beautiful Owl shot!

The Northern Cardinal is the one bird species where the female is just as gorgeous, if not more so, than the male.

Wonderful capture!

Great spotted cuckoo and Common hoopoe.
These two species are the first to migrate from Africa to Southern Europe during the last week of February
